Prompt Woes
Mar. 19th, 2013 11:29 am*sighs heavily and droops* Looks like my drabble run is over =(
The new prompt is 'Women's History' and will run for 2 weeks. I have nothing. Not the faintest idea. And to keep on schedule for 100 drabbles this year, I have to write at least three over the next two weeks.
Is it just me or is this the worst prompt EVER? I'm not a history buff, most of the Torchwood women don't even interest me and the ones that do don't seem to lend themselves to anything remotely historical anyway.
Does anyone out there have any ideas of someone or something I could use? Because I'm stumped. Maybe I'll just crawl under the bed and stay there for the next two weeks.
*sits in corner wibbling*

i know it would be a pain to have to email them so i get it if you've changed your mind but if now it would be really helpful

Date: 2013-03-19 07:04 pm (UTC)We're stuck with Women's History for the next two weeks, so maybe you'll have time to write something. If you're stuck for ideas, take a look through the comments below on this post - clearly other people have better brains than mine and there are some great ideas, so help yourself! I've managed to get two out of one idea, looking at it from two perspectives, and I might try to get a couple more from some of the other ideas. I'm so glad I complained about the promt, lol!
*Hugs* Sorry to hear you're not doing so well.
